dc.description.abstractFifteen (34.8%) of 43 patients of falciparum malaria screened for urinary abnormalities showed significant proteinuria (greater than 150 mg/24 h), haematuria (greater than 1/HPF) and casts, with or without azotaemia. Light microscopic examination of renal biopsy tissue from 12 patients revealed mesangial and endothelial proliferative change in 8, and acute tubular necrosis in one patient. Immunofluorescence showed IgM alone, or IgG and IgM along with C3, in 7 patients within the mesangium or along the capillary walls. Repeat kidney biopsy after 6 wk in 5 patients revealed no residual pathology indicating the reversible nature of the lesions.en_US
